Sneak Preview: SAP Enterprise Services Explorer for Microsoft .NET

  • Article

Enterprise Services Explorer for Microsoft .NET (ES Explorer) from SAP has been made available through SDN as an early sneak preview.

The ES Explorer is an add in for Visual Studio 2005 & 2008 that lets you search, browse and consume SAP web services that are published and categorized in the Enterprise Services Registry that is part from the upcoming NetWeaver CE 7.1.

The ES Explorer can be considered a successor to the .NET Connector and it is consistent with SAP moving into the Enterprise SOA (ESOA) space.

With this wizard like tool a .NET developer can find an SAP web service more easily then ever and consume it by a simple right click from within the development environment. The web service can be consumed as a regular .asmx web service or as a WCF service.

The tool also has an integrated help documentation and a very ease way to configure it using a custom Tools -> Options page in VS development environment.

The ES Explorer is the outcome of the continued collaboration between SAP & Microsoft.
